"They say Filipina is another name for maid"

reader response critique:

In this poem,It tells that Filipinas is another name for maid.We can't avoid to hear that kind of word from other countries especially foreigners and those people who degrading the people in our country. Mostly people in our country choose to have and find job to other countries in order to have a bigger money to earned,to increase their salary because they believe that they can have a better life and they can give the needs and wants of their family. Being an OFWs is not easy as it seems. OFWs should be honored because they are brave enough to voice out their needs and find them. This poems shows me the hardships that many of our fellow Filipinos endure by working in other countries as servants. Although many are mistreated and physically abused. There is distinct discrimination against our kind in different foreign countries, and this is the worst fabrication of those discrimination. Although in other countries the line of work that our fellow Filipinos are seen to be degrading of ones being. This poem describes how Filipinas treated in other countries. Their sacrifices was being misinterpreted by the foreigners and sadly think that Filipinas are MAIDS. They didn't understand what is the truth about Filipinas.Filipinas are the most compassionate and kind when it comes to taking care of children and household. They only see them as a slaves, But the thing is they only wanted to earn for their family yet ,they were being mistreated and abused. It hurts for us as a Filipinos to hear that there is someone who suffer from being abused and not treated well in other countries.Everyone has a right to be valued and treated well. Abusing and maltreated is really violence against our human rights. In that case we can fight and defend ourselves who were being abused, But because Filipinos have a strong heart,they did everything, they sacrifice and choose to stand better the situation and face all the challenges of being OFWs even though it is so hard. This kind of abused should take for an action for all OFWs. They deserve to have a good quality of job because of their perseverance to achieve their common goals in life. For me it shows great courage,determination and LOVE. This is the truth example of sacrificing oneself for other people that matter to you and this is one of the many good characteristics of Filipinos everywhere. There is no shame in that. They risk their lives for their family and their country and most of all They are said to be the heroes of our generation.
